Tasting All My Mates

Chapter 108

108-The Broken One

“Somebody has to go mark leave or else Mr. Tripper will come out tripping after us,” Lazlo said while packing his bag and getting ready to leave the cabin.

“Do you want me to bring your clothes or other stuff?” He stopped right when he was about to leave and asked me. I realized why he asked me that. After he brought me back, he covered me up in his shorts and shirt that he had left in the cabin some time ago.

“Sure! My charger too,” I sneakily looked away because when I woke up, my phone battery had died. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Got it,” he nodded and left the cabin. I haven’t been upstairs and it’s been two hours since I woke up.

Lazlo had to go to mark leave for all three of us and also bring us some food and other necessities.

I had some thoughts in regards to Thiago. When I walked upstairs, I found Thiago lying in the bed but wide awake.

“Morning!” I greeted, awkwardly walking to the other side of the bed to sit down on the chair with him.

“Hm! Moming!” he replied in a much calmer voice. He had his wounds covered up but I am assuming he was going to take some time to heal, “Enya!” just when I thought I would be the one to start talking, he did.

“Thanks for coming to the mountains in search of me. I didn’t really expect you to come. How can I after what I did to you?” he had tumed his face in my direction to look me in the eye when admitting he had done wrong.

“It’s all in the past, forget about it,” I didn’t mean it. In fact, I would have loved to find out more about my parents.

“What is going on with you?” I asked him a different question to divert his attention from what happened between us.

“He is crazy!” he let out a laugh before a tear left the corner of his eye, “I don’t know. Maybe he is a monster! Maybe I am a monster,” he finished and then straightened his face to watch the ceiling again.

“Is this why you push everyone away from you? You are afraid your wolf might hurt them?” I asked, regardless of my feelings about him pushing me away by stealing my only chance to find out about my powers and my parents.

When he didn’t answer me, I felt triggered into finally speaking my heart out.

“Why did you betray me? you could have just asked me to help you get your files too. You knew I wouldn’t have blinked an eye and helped you, but you didn’t. You chose the most brutal way to brea-k my heart,” I was beginning to sniff a lot because I was fighting the tears in now.

“I don’t want to talk abou-t it,” He closed his eyes and it angered me.

He was still going to avoid the confrontation?

“But I want to talk about it. Not everything will go according to you or your desires,” I got out of the chair and hunched over him. He still didn’t open his eyes, getting under my skin.

“I am such a fo-ol. I almost lost my life when saving your ass back on the mountains and here you are, being almighty Alpha Thiago, who doesn’t like being questioned. I hate it that I ever cared about you. Yo—” It was like I was crying to an empty shell.

“To hell with you,” taking a deep breath, I rushed out of the room but only to slide down the wall and cover my face with my hands to cry a river on my palms.

My emotions were raw but justified. How could someone be so heartless? At least he could be honest with me and help me forget about the pain he had caused me, but instead, he stayed stubbornly with his eyes closed.

“I don’t know what is the truth an-ymore,” I heard his whisper and instantly uncovered my face. He had walked out of the room holding his hand on his bandage. He was only wearing his pants when he sat down against the railing of the mezzanine area.

“I get it. What happened to your parents is horrible. Your parents were killed by someone from my pack, but that wasn’t me. Then why did you punish me?” I was back at questioning him again now that he came out of the room to answer me.

“I know it wasn’t you,” he said, bringing his one knee closer to his chest and resting his elbow on it while the wounded side of his body was resting comfortably.

“Then why did you take your anger out on me?” I asked and focused on how he zoned out.

“Because I do–n’t know who did it. Because every time I think about it-my wolf misleads me. He tells me -,” he paused when breaking his stare from the hollow space and making eye contact with me, “That you did it. He tells me the Alpha King did it. He doesn’t know who did it and I don’t remember.” His eyes streamed tears, his voice was rough and full of emotions too.

This would be the first time I saw him displaying so many emotions at once.

It shook me to my core when I heard his confession.

“I try to be a g-ood person. I tried to be a go-od mate but when you said your father’s name back in the woods, my wolf told me he killed my parents until he denied it later on. I am h aving this battle inside

me every day, Enya! I try not to think of everyone as a murderer but I can’t help it,” he was shaking in anger and crying too, “You know what’s the worst part?” he didn’t even wait for me to respond

“I was a fucking witness to what happened that night but now I don’t remember anything. I just go blind, deaf and mute whenever trying to recall that n-ight,” as he finished in tears and closed his eyes to relive the trauma of not being able to remember his parent’s murder, I was struck with fright.

His words reminded me of the nightmare l had back in the mountains.
